    Isn’t it great that the Republicans control both houses of Congress and the Presidency? So they can efficiently solve all the problems we face: health insurance, the debt, immigration, and of course North Korea. Go to it, people!! You promised!!

    Even though the GOP has control of the Presidency, Congress and arguably the SCOTUS, it’s clearly all the minority DEMs fault!

    Shouldn’t Ms. Benson be thanking the President and the rest of the GOP’s leadership for these storms? Or, perhaps the Koch brothers and their ilk?

    Congress has forgotten how to work! They have control of the entire government and they don’t know how to work. They only know how to destroy. If they’re going to get anything done they think they have to destroy everything Obama did to build a good foundation for our country. So they think okay we get rid of whatever Obama did and we start over. We get rid of Obamacare then….. Then we can build a new health policy. We get rid of all of the safety regulations Obama put in…… Then…… Then we’ll do all new policies…….. We get rid of anything that Obama did for public parks…. Then….. Then we’ll do a new public park system that doesn’t cost as much…….. They don’t know how to work they only know how to destroy. And because they’re repubs, the only thing they want to do is line they’re rich patrons pockets. And you know what…. If there’s a God, he’s warning them again,…. He said you guys aren’t listening….. So I’m sending you another one WARNING… Here Comes IRMA!!!!!!!!!!! Now maybe you’ll get off your fat asses and start taking care of my planet and my people …………ALL of them……. LIKE YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO DO!!!!!!!! START LISTENING.

    . . . hey! The average pay for Congress is $175K/100 work days! Give them a break! Try to imagine how difficult it is to live on $1,750/day! Do YOU think it is easy? Sad. :’(

    The Republican response to all of these issues is the same, give tax cuts to the rich, and dither until nothing gets done. Dreamers who grew up in America will be deported, the government will be funded because they won’t hurt themselves, but they won’t pay for it. The debt ceiling will go up and hurricane aid will go down (Sorry Florida) Tax reform will go as well as healthcare reform, which seems to have slipped off the list. What a great negotiator Trump is, what a great legislative body the GOP has created. How’s that for alt-news? I bet Benson and her Trumpettes actually believe the Republicans are running DC well.

    Looks like the Republicans elected their new Satanic pope.

    Lisa, eliminating DACA will cost money. To bring the debt down, (1) cut military budget by eliminating waste – stop building tanks that go straight to storage, stop building missiles that cost $800K EACH and focus on diplomacy; (2) eliminate fossil fuel subsidies; (3) tax ALL income at income tax rates by eliminating capital gains loophole for hedge fund managers and execs that get paid in stock options; (4) raise the top tax rates, when they were higher the middle class was prospering and corporations invested in long-term company plans and training employees to bring down their tax liability.
